Miami. He lives there and would come cheap. If he works out, the Marlins could flip him at the deadline,. If not it only costs them a cheap contract.

Beer in the dugout during a game, no thanks.

Don't need his type around the kids.

Teams were willing to tolerate his nonsense when he was a very productive hitter.
Now that he has dropped off being an a-hole appears to be catching up with him?

Don’t let the past remind us of what we are not now does not apply here.

The Phillies released Castellanos, so he is available for the league minimum now. Which team will pick him up?

Castellanos will get offers from which to choose since any team taking a flyer on him would only be paying the MLB minimum salary.
A bottom feeder hoping to catch lightning in a bottle and flip him at the deadline (if he is hitting well) is the most likely scenario.
Rockies and White Sox might fit.

Yeah, I thought the Rockies right away. I could see either.

Same answer I gave Shady, NO NO NO now repeat 1 million times before posting again. In your case 999,999 of those repeats will be suspended

To my fellow old ones: Can you imagine NC doing that to Fred Hutchinson? Where do we send his body?

[ScotchMIrish]

Herrera is the DH.

I must admit that I did not see him going to San Diego.
Particularly since they had just recently signed Andujar.
With Tatis/Merrill/Laureano in the outfield, and Sheets/Croneworth/Andujar available for 1B/DH duties, there is no obvious fit for Castellanos.
Perhaps Preller in lining up a trade which will clear a path.
Regardless, this drops my accuracy rate from 96.87% to 96.42% - which is disappointing.

Indications are that the Padres are considering Castellanos at first base this year, although he has never played there in MLB.
